I see my first Diesel Pusher as a step for me for moving up later.
Since it's the 8.3 and you know how to turn it up for free or regrind the fuel plate to a #10... you are way ahead of most on here and doing your own work will not be a problem. May take more than 30 minutes if you have to drill one of the four bolts that hold the end on.
That's a lot of MH for $15K or maybe less and for the amount of use you posted and if everything works, I'd go for it.
Is it really as simple as modifying the Fuel Plate to increase the HP? What will this do to Fuel consumption and reliability?
